Study Notes

The Post-Resurrection Appearances of Christ

  • The record in the New Testament indicates that Christ's resurrection was a literal, physical event that lasted for 40 days and 40 nights, during which He taught, was with His disciples, and showed them His hands and feet (Acts 1).
  • This event is distinct from theophanies, which are brief appearances of God in the Old Testament.

The Resurrection of Christ

  • The resurrection of Christ is a transformation of a corpse into a living, supernatural body (Soma Pneumatikon), which is sharply distinguished from resuscitation to the ordinary state of life (e.g., Lazarus).
  • The resurrected body of Christ is immortal, glorious, powerful, and supernatural, no longer bound by the physical limitations of this world.
  • Christ's resurrection is a manifestation of the power of God, which is also the power that works in believers, granting them eternal life.

The Nature of the Resurrected Body

  • The resurrected body of Christ is a physical body that is suited for the spiritual realm and eternity, but it is not a natural, this-worldly physical body.
  • The body is material, but it is not limited by the laws of this world; it is capable of appearing and disappearing at will.
  • The resurrected body is also imperishable, immortal, and insusceptible to illness and disease.

The Significance of Christ's Resurrection

  • Christ's resurrection is essential to salvation, as it demonstrates God's power and confirms Christ's identity as the Son of God.
  • The resurrection has implications for our understanding of the future, our grieving with hope, and our steadfastness in serving the Lord.
  • It offers a distinctive consoling ministry towards those who are grieving, as it provides a hope that is not available to unbelievers.

The Hope of Resurrection

  • The resurrection of Christ is the promise of our own resurrection, and it is the foundation of our hope for the future.
  • As believers, we will be glorified and resurrected, and we will be able to rejoice and be at home in the presence of God.
  • The new city of Jerusalem will be our residence, and our names are already written on the door.
